Here's a bit of an oddity. From the title you'd think this was a detective/crime short, but it's actually a comedy about two newlyweds whose respective relatives can't stand each other.

Disappearing Enemies (1931)
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...

Re: Disappearing Enemies (1931)
That's a pleasant little comedy. It's interesting to see Rex Bell.
The voice of the actor playing the minister sounded very familiar to me. And then I remembered it sounds a great deal like the character of Jack, the groom in the Sennett early talkie Scotch from 1929. Not the same actor, though. The minister here is Arthur Hoyt, and that's Ernest Wood (and besides, there's a difference in age).
Do their voices sound alike to you? See around 5:15. That's Addie McPhail (wife of Arbuckle) playing opposite Wood, and Billy Bevan with the mustache, old Keystone veteran.
